Tesseract Modular TEX-MIX Master Section
Expandable eurorack mixer master hub with full monitoring
8 HP Eurorack module
The TEX-MIX Master Section is the central hub of the Tesseract Modular Expandable Mixer system, providing power distribution to all linked mixer modules and housing the summing circuits for all four audio buses. It delivers a full monitoring and output stage with stereo aux returns, dedicated sends, headphone output, and flexible cue/master monitoring, making it the spine of a fully modular mixing system for eurorack. Musically, it is a utility-focused workhorse that enables complex live performance routing, parallel FX processing, and headphone cueing without coloring the signal.
